SOUTH AFRICA: Back From Kwa-zulu Natal What A Trip

That nyala is beautiful!
 
................

For those of you who followed my horror story with getting these trophies back to me after my safari this is why I never gave up hope... These are beautiful trophies that I am very proud of. What great memories they will kindle for years to come.

Thanks again to saeng101 for all of his help... Without him these trophies would never have made their way back to me. I owe him everything. Thanks again John. I will be going back to SA this may/June to hunt at Koedoeberg and hopefully get a chance at the "Grey Ghost" and a few other plains game that eluded me on my first trip.

Take care everyone.

Great to here John was able to help you out. Awesome.

Willem will take care of you.
 
That's some fantastic news, Great job John for helping end this mess, class act for sure. Great looking trophies as well and I agree and also love Nyala's I had mine done in a half mount and now I wish I did a full mount so I could see all the great colors on them. Good luck on your next trip and I hope you get a big Kudu.
 
Yeah it really feels good to put this fiasco behind me so I can concentrate on our next trip. I wanted to do a full Nyala mount but I just don't have the room for it. I need a larger man cave! I am excited about our next trip in a few months and I am hoping Willem and his crew can put us on a nice Kudu bull as well as some other great animals.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
